So stunning! A favorite of mine... I wish there could be a reproduction of this version of Macbeth, costumes and all... that would be magical to behold!
It's beetlework?! The painting is a glorious glittering fantasy, yes, but that dress as an artefact, with the cloak...this is an instance of two works of art in conversation, each enhancing the other's presence. Massive props to the curators who got that outfit out and displayed, delicate Indian beetle jewels and all.
Adore Sargents work
That's fantastic seeing the real dress beside it.
This is one of the few portrait's that i never knew was from Sargent! Wonderful! More of this please!

I love Sargent, his work never ceases to amaze me, I saw his Lily Rose painting at the Tate in the 70's & have been a huge fan ever since.

Beetle work and needle work!
The frame and wall color set the painting off perfectly.
I admire his works , and the knowledgeable description given by both art lovers...his explanation of Diva is right on!❤
INTERESTING....
ABSOLUTEMENT.....
Good YESS....... .... . .
I am not convinced.
This painting doesn't compare with much of Sargent's other major works, IMHO.
The dress is beautiful, but clearly knitted, not crocheted.
